FLOATING ENTERPRISE

The Floating-Enterprise paradigm is a vision of the enterprise of the future, as expected to emerge from Proper Corporate Web-Usage, which is quite diferent from from today's Corporate Web-Usage propagated by IT.
The Floating-Enterprise paradigm defines the enterprise as a market-making institution, rather than a legal/corporate person. → close.

CORPORATE COLLABORATION MARKET

The 'Corporate-Collaboration Market' paradigm is a vision of the Computer-Aided Corporate Collaboration Management, expected to emerge in the enterprise of the future.
According to this vision, Collaboration will be basically self-organizing, following the market-principle with a governance regime superimposed, as a kind of market-regulation. The border between Governance and Self-Organization is explicite and can be fine-tuned to correspond exactly to the respective ideas about 'Corporate Identity'. → close.

CORPORATE SUBWEB

The 'Corporate Subweb' paradigm is a vision, how to implement a Computer-Aided Corporate Collaboration Market by means of Web-technology. According to this vision, Corporate Collaboration Management is based on the request-response pattern of the Public Web, with restrictions superimposed, designed to account for Governance, i.e., to control access and request-response behaviour. This turns the Public Web into a Corporate Subweb. → close.

BLINDNESS OF IT - ALIGNING BUSINESS TO IT, WHILE SURMISING THE REVERSE

IT is modelling what is going on in a company in terms of purely technical processes. That's a completely valid abstraction. Now, IT modifies these processes to improve, in a sense, some of their properties. That's valid, too. But then IT tries to reverse the abstraction, starting from the modified processes. Since reversal of abstraction, in any case, is creative reification, any reversal would be an alignment of what is going on in the company to (the technical reasoning of) IT. Resulting in a technocratic turn, in line with the principle of central planning. → close.
